CELTIC boss Neil Lennon last night refused to rule out replenishing his South Korean contingent after lining up a raid for Kim Bo-Kyung.

The 22-year-old winger plays in the Japanese J-League with Cerezo Osaka.

Championship side Cardiff City are also keen on landing Kim.

Speaking after the Hoops drew 0-0 with Bundesliga side Augsburg in the opening game of their German tour, Lennon, who already has Ki Sung-Yueng in his ranks, said: “He’s a player we’ve been linked with, but there’s nothing more on that just now.

“I don’t know him personally but I’ve seen him play. He’s a creative type but there nothing more in it just now.

“There will be a lot of players we’re linked with but we’ve narrowed it down to a few.”

South Korean star Kim admitted he’d jump at a move to Europe, and said: ‘I want to play in the UK or Germany and Celtic and Cardiff City and Celtic would allow me to develop.

‘I have no experience in Europe, so I am happy to learn step by step.’

Lennon is still seeking another centre forward and defender although he last night denied Nottingham Forest striker Dexter Blackstock was on his radar.

He has also continued to keep an eye on Rosenburg midfielder Morten Henriksen.

“We have narrowed it down to a few positions and the boys back home are working on it,” said Lennon.
